[QUOTE="mr_palitoy, post: 267172, member: 137"] Next up is an AFA 90 45c Boba Fett. This was my pride and joy and cost me £550 back in the day. Now looking like a very expensive mistake. [ATTACH=full]135224[/ATTACH] Serial number is 16045744. Grading Date Feb 09, 2006. One of three different Boba Fett figure types categorised by AFA for this figure/card type. Sure sign of figures being bought up to put onto cards. It was always wondered why later trilogo versions of this figure can be found on this early cardback. Well now you know! [ATTACH=full]135225[/ATTACH] Bubble starting to peal off at the bottom of the card, a sign of a Toni seal. [ATTACH=full]135226[/ATTACH] Some used cardbacks for this figure/cardback. [ATTACH=full]135227[/ATTACH] Top left is a 45CG which came out of the Asian Palitoy factory. It has HG in small letters after ROTJ1 on the back of the card as described here. http://www.freewebs.com/mrpalitoy/rotj45ccardback.htm If you have one of these then you haven't been Tonied. Top right is a used cardback with iron marks bought from Toni's marsking ebay account in 2007. Note the minimal bubble imprint compared to the shop sold double stem examples shown bottom left and bottom right. So shop sold examples had the double pronged bubble, so again, Toni is using the wrong bubble type here with this super wide, super strong, super clear rectangular bubble. [/QUOTE]
